Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Say someone sends a booking request, and the appointment calendar owner accepts the request. Now the booker needs to reschedule, what can they do? Right now, nothing.
It would be nice to allow the user a propose a new meeting time instead. We have a ticket to allow them to cancel and a ticket to allow the appointment calendar owner to reschedule but we don't have a ticket to allow the booker to propose a a new time.
Describe the solution you'd like
In the booking confirmation email, we should give the booker the option to propose a new time, which upon acceptance, would remove the old appointment.

Research direction
Start from the booking confirmation email flow and the handling of accepted appointments. Trace how a booker can propose a new time, how the calendar owner accepts it, and how the existing appointment is removed. Done means the confirmation email offers this option and an accepted proposal replaces the old appointment.
